Chapter 255: Escaped
Since Chen Shangshu didn't know the specific location of the Flying Eagle Sect, he sent a large internal guard to rush to Shangshu Mansion to find Muyang to lead the way.
With a team of people and horses, they rushed to the mountains and forests where the Flying Eagle Sect was entrenched, Muyang pointed to a mountain and said to Chen Shangshu; "My lord, this is it."
Chen Shangshu looked at the steep mountain road and made a difficulty, they didn't know the reality of the enemy, whether they would fall into the enemy's ambush if they rushed up like this, and they didn't know how many enemies there were.
Standing at the foot of the mountain, Muyang looked at Chen Shangshu and said, "My lord, why don't I lead a pair of people to rush up?" Caught him off guard? ”
After hesitating again and again, Chen Shangshu ordered: "Wulong, you take a team of men and horses to rush up the mountain first, Wuhu will answer behind, and Muyang and I will guard at the bottom of the mountain, so as not to escape any remnants of the Flying Eagle Sect." ”
Soon after Wu Long led people up the mountain, he heard the sound of fighting, and Chen Shangshu was sure that the Flying Eagle Sect was indeed entrenched here, so he sent Wu Hu up the mountain to respond.
After a long while, the fighting on the mountain stopped, and soon Wulong Wuhu came down with people, Chen Shangshu saw Wulong Wuhu and asked, "How is the situation on the mountain?" ”
According to a group of newly recruited Flying Eagle Sect disciples, they have a total of three sect leaders, the big sect leader's surname is Gao, known as the high sect leader, it is said that this person is strong in martial arts, ruthless, and kills countless people, the second sect leader seems to be called Li Fugui, old and calculating, a vicious heart, the third sect leader is a woman, it seems to be called Chunhua, wearing red clothes all day long, dressed in demonic spirit.
Hearing Wu Long say that Li Fugui was still in it, he was stunned in his heart, it seems that this Flying Eagle Sect is indeed not simple, it can be seen from its composition, it is an organization that specializes in opposing the imperial court, otherwise it would not let the imperial court order the leader of the army.
Thinking of this, Chen Shangshu looked at Wu Long seriously and asked, "Is there any living mouth left on the mountain?" ”
"There were more than a dozen new members who voluntarily surrendered, and we just tied them up and didn't kill them. It's still in the cave. ”
"Why don't you take them down?" Chen Shangshu asked.
"Adults don't know that in this cold weather, those new members are only wearing jackets, shivering from the cold. My subordinates don't know what to do? "Wu Long is embarrassed.
"Let's go to the mountains and have a look."
Chen Shangshu led a group of people up the mountain, with Wulong leading the way, they came to a cave, Chen Shangshu saw more than a dozen teenagers in the cave being tied up, wearing jackets, shivering from the cold.
Seeing this situation, Chen Shangshu asked his subordinates to bring one of them to him for questioning.
I saw that the man was about twenty years old and looked quite honest, he knelt down in front of Chen Shangshu and said, "Adult, the little one is wronged!" It was not my intention to come to the mountain to be a Flying Eagle Cultist, but it was really the money I owed to Captain Song, and he forced me to come to the mountain. ”
Hearing him mention Taiwei Song, Chen Shangshu was shocked and hurriedly asked, "What's going on?" Say it. ”
"Your Excellency doesn't know yet! That Song Taiwei and the Flying Eagle Sect have long colluded, the Flying Eagle Sect may want to expand the team, but they don't dare to recruit people openly, we are all recruited by Song Taiwei and sent to the mountain. ”
Chen Shangshu gritted his teeth, he only knew that the Su Governor's Mansion had taken refuge in the Flying Eagle Sect, and now even Song Taiwei had been betrayed by the imperial court, and the emperor raised them with silver, in exchange for a true betrayal.
Chen Shangshu looked at the man and asked, "Let me ask again, what about your sect leader?" Aren't there three? Why can't you see any of them? ”
The man blinked; "Small, I don't know where the three sect masters are, they don't usually live in a cave with us."
Hearing him say this, Chen Shangshu instructed Wulong Wuhu: "Go and see if there are any other caves." ”
It was Wulong and Wuhu who were ordered to go down. According to them, he was deceived into going to the mountain, and when he came to the mountain, his personal freedom was restricted, and he was only allowed to practice every day, and if he was a little lazy, he was beaten violently.
It didn't take Wu Long and others to report that there was indeed a cave on the mountain, but there was no shadow of the three sect masters in it, and there was a rope under the cliff leading to the back mountain, and it was estimated that the three of them escaped along this rope.
Hearing him say this, Chen Shangshu walked out of the cave and came to the back mountain to check in person, and saw that there was indeed a rope that went straight to the bottom of the cliff, and he hurriedly ordered several guards to climb down the rope to check the reality and reality.
After waiting for two hours, the people sent down said that there was no figure below, but there were traces of trampling on the grass and trees. The three sect masters must have taken advantage of the chaos to escape.
Without further ado, Chen Shangshu was afraid that something would happen in Kyoto, so he hurriedly ordered people to escort those surrendered Protestants, and the group hurried back to Kyoto.
As soon as the emperor heard this, Chen Shangshu pounced into the air again, pointed at him and reprimanded: "Who kept assuring me that this time I would definitely wipe out the Flying Eagle Sect, and every time I swooped into the air, why did you say that I raised you waste." ”
Hearing the emperor say that he was a waste, Chen Shangshu grinned and said: "Your Majesty, although you haven't caught the three wicked people of the Flying Eagle Sect, Weichen has an important matter to report to the emperor." ”
The emperor said impatiently: "What can you tell me quickly?" ”
"Wei Chen learned from those disciples that Taiwei Song actually colluded with the Flying Eagle Sect."
"What do you say? Song Li actually colluded with the Flying Eagle Sect? The emperor didn't believe it. You must know that the day before yesterday I heard the queen say that my father-in-law was going to form a family with the Taiwei Mansion, so Song Li used to be a Taishou, and only a few days after he became a Taiwei, did he think about rebellion? also colluded with the Flying Eagle Sect.
Seeing that the emperor was suspicious of this, Chen Shangshu hurriedly ordered Muyang to bring one of the disciples to the emperor.
It was not likely that Muyang brought a disciple with a big tie to the emperor, and the emperor saw that the disciple was dressed strangely, and said with a smile: "Chen Aiqing, why does this Flying Eagle Sect wear such clothes for newcomers?" ”
Chen Shangshu looked at the disciples standing in front of him, wearing several layers of various single clothes, and a sack was draped outside.
He grinned and said, "The Flying Eagle Sect Master doesn't have any money to buy cotton clothes for the disciples, and the disciples usually don't go out, hiding in the cave to keep warm,"
Chen Shangshu looked at the man and ordered: "This is the emperor, if you have any grievances, just tell me, the emperor will definitely make decisions for you." ”
As soon as the man heard that he could complain, he cried with a handful of snot and tears: "Your Majesty, you must be the master of the grass people!" The reason why the grass people joined the Flying Eagle Sect was forced by Song Taiwei, I rented him an acre of thin land, and there was no harvest this year, so he forced me to rent it, and threatened to let me go to prison if I didn't give it. ”――
